j:dead

UK-based industrial-electronic act j:dead is the brainchild of solo artist Jay Taylor, whose dynamic blend of dark electronics, anthemic hooks, and emotionally charged vocals has carved a distinct space in the global alternative scene. Known for delivering high-impact tracks that bridge raw industrial textures with razor-sharp pop sensibility, j:dead continues to evolve with a sound built as much for the dancefloor as it is for emotional resonance. After making waves with standout performances across premier European festivals such as Amphi, Wave Gotik Treffen, and Plage Noire, j:dead has emerged as a compelling live force, where his boundless energy and commanding stage presence elevate the music beyond the studio. This live energy now forms the core of his latest sonic direction. 5th December 2025 marks the launch of a bold new chapter: a 12-month release campaign via Infacted Recordings, delivering a new single every month. Each track is crafted with the immediacy of a live set - aggressive, melodic, and built to connect viscerally with audiences. Balancing harsh electronics with an unmistakable vocal identity, j:dead offers a powerful synthesis of modern industrial and alternative pop. Whether in clubs, festival stages, or personal playlists, his music refuses to stand still; always pushing forward, always hitting hard.
